Charting new territory in the realm of electronic music, Dubai-based producer Myrillion teams up with South African singer-songwriter Leoné Murphy to deliver their latest collaborative single, 'La Petite Mort.' This enchanting track, which marks the debut release from their upcoming EP, showcases Myrillion's signature blend of lush, intricate production with Murphy's captivating vocals.

Inspired by love's intoxicating beginnings, 'La Petite Mort' ('The Little Death') weaves a hypnotic sonic tapestry that transports listeners into the depths of passion and infatuation. Myrillion's warm, tape-sampled beats and cinematic strings provide the perfect backdrop for Murphy's ethereal voice - creating a mesmerising experience that captures the fleeting yet exhilarating moments of burgeoning romance.

Reflecting on the track, Myrillion has said “We wanted 'La Petite Mort' to sort of wash over you again and again. To feel like a fever dream - a bit like that initial madness you go through when falling in love. The strings and cinematic elements definitely bring some romance but the bass and deep groove try and evoke that intensity, and at times the instability”. Indeed, the contrast between the punching sub-sonic 808s and crunchy tape beats, and the floating, ethereal strings and synths paint exactly this dichotomy of euphoria and vulnerability.

With roots in the trip-hop and downtempo sounds of the 90s and early 2000s, Myrillion's music pays homage to iconic acts such as Portishead, Air and Zero 7, while incorporating modern elements that have been likened to Bonobo and Galimatias. Leoné Murphy's soulful vocals add a unique dimension to the collaboration, infusing the track with warmth and dreamlike beauty.

As 'La Petite Mort' sets the stage for their forthcoming EP, Myrillion and Leoné Murphy are poised to make a significant impact on the electronic music scene. With their intricate and immersive soundscapes and seductive lyrics, the duo invites listeners on a sensuous sonic journey.
